SUMMARY:Centre for Creative Technologies Masterclass Series: A Singular Harmony: on the Kinematics of Creativity & the Language of Intel
DESCRIPTION:A Singular Harmony: on the Kinematics of Creativity & the Language of Intel\n\n\n\n\nPart of the Masterclasses @ Centre for Creative Technologies collection \n\n\n\n\nDr Cissie Fu\, Head of School\, McNally School of Fine Arts at Lasalle University of the Arts Singapore \nJoin us for the next in the masterclass series run by the Centre for Creative Technologies\, where we welcome Dr Cissie Fu\, Head of School\, McNally School of Fine Arts at Lasalle University of the Arts Singapore. \n\n\nAbstract \n“We are pressed into lines\, just as lines are the accumulation of such moments of pressure\,” writes Sara Ahmed in Queer Phenomenology (2006)\, to which this anachronistic rejoinder from Virginia Woolf’s “Craftsmanship” (1937) rings resonant\, still: “[Some words] show no trace of the strange\, of the diabolical power which words possess when they are not tapped out by a typewriter but come fresh from a human brain.” \nBy tracing the geometries of movement that liberate various structures of form and metre\, this masterclass invites us to risk intervention through variable foot and cadence units\, towards crafting invention with more-than-human intelligences\, algorithmic or heuristic\, artificial or indigenous. Let us consider the conditions under which\, in the poetic prose of William Carlos Williams’s Kora in Hell – Improvisations XXII (1970)\, “a thing known passes out of the mind into the muscles” and compose lines of flight that converge and diverge into a neuropolyphony. \nSpeaker Biography \nDr Cissie Fu (AB Harvard; MSt\, MSc\, DPhil Oxford) is a political theorist and co-founder of the Political Arts Initiative\, which invites 21st-century imag-e-nations of the political through digital technology and the creative and performing arts. \nBorn in Hong Kong\, Cissie taught and performed across cultural and educational institutions in Asia\, Europe\, UK\, and the Americas. She recently joined University of the Arts Singapore as Head of the McNally School of Fine Arts at LASALLE College of the Arts\, after having served as Dean of the Faculty of Culture + Community at Emily Carr University of Art + Design in Vancouver and earlier as Director of Studies at Leiden University College in The Hague. \nCissie’s research connects politics\, philosophy\, and performance. Her interests in relational aesthetics and decolonial action\, combined with her experiments in experiential and transformative organisational design\, inform her approach to institution-building as a creative\, critical and communal cultural practice. \nRegistration\nPlease register via Eventbrite at: https://www.eventbrite.ie/e/a-singular-harmony-on-the-kinematics-of-creativity-the-language-of-intel-tickets-855863188837

SUMMARY:POSTPONED! Margaret Heavey Memorial Lecture 2024
DESCRIPTION:Regrettably\, we have had to postpone the Margaret Heavey Memorial Lecture planned for 12 March. We hope to hold the lecture on a future date. \nMargaret Heavey Memorial Lecture 2024\nProf. Isabelle Torrance (University of Aarhus) \n “A Trip to the Moon: Lucian\, Irish Satire and Migration History” \nFor background on the lecture series (and details for access via Zoom) see here:\nhttps://www.universityofgalway.ie/classics/events/heavey/ \nAbstract: \nA Trip to the Moon by Mr Murtagh McDermot is a little-studied 18th-century Irish satire\, published hot on the heels of Jonathan Swift’s Gulliver’s Travels. It reports extraordinary encounters with animal-human hybrids\, the lunar monarch and his court\, Pythagoreans\, an underwater cave where poetry is created with anvils and hammers\, the discovery of the Philosopher’s stone\, and a moon language learned by ingesting boiled books. \nThis talk will introduce the text and will put forward three interconnected arguments on classical reception\, political satire\, and migration history. First\, the significance of Lucian’s Vera Historia (True History) for framing the narrative will be mapped out. Second\, the insistence on Irish identity and politics within this satire will be highlighted as distinctive within 18th-century Irish Utopian literature. Finally\, it will be suggested that the imagined experiences of migration satirized in A Trip to the Moon should be read against the backdrop of the first large waves of migration from Ulster to North America.

SUMMARY:University of Galway History Research Seminar: Rethinking Veterancy from the Colonies
DESCRIPTION:University of Galway History Research \nRethinking Veterancy from the Colonies \nDr Dónal Hassett (University College Cork) \n  \nBiography \nDr Dónal Hassett is Senior Lecturer in French at University College Cork. His research has two main focuses: the history of the French Empire\, in particular North Africa\, and the legacies of conflict\, especially veteran studies. He is primarily interested in how those who participated in military conflicts in the colonial world grappled with the legacies of war in peacetime. His work seeks to bring together the approaches used by historians of the colonial word with the analyses of those who study veterancy to lay the foundations for a global history of the war veteran. He has published widely on these topics and his first monograph\, Mobilizing Memory: The Great War and the Language of Politics in Colonial Algeria\, 1918-1939\, appeared in August 2019 with Oxford University Press. Dónal was also recently awarded an ERC Starting Grant of €1.2 million for a project titled COLVET – Ex-soldiers of Empire: Colonial Veterancy of the Interwar World. \nRegistration \nThis is a hybrid event. The paper will be delivered in-person\, in Room G010\, Hardiman Research Building\, University of Galway (ground floor) and livestreamed simultaneously on Zoom: https://universityofgalway-ie.zoom.us/j/92657616291. \nSeminars are not recorded. \nTo attend via Zoom\, please register at: https://forms.office.com/e/vuiCM5FvtH \nThis talk is part of the University of Galway History Seminar series and is co-hosted with the Centre for the Investigation of Transnational Encounters (CITE).  \nThe event will be followed by a reception with tea\, coffee\, and pastries.

SUMMARY:Digital Humanities Research Group seminar: ‘Two new resources for manuscript studies: network graphs\, linked open data\, open-access publishing\, natural language processing’
DESCRIPTION:The second Digital Humanities Research Group seminar of this semester will take place on Wednesday 6 March 12pm in room THB-G010 (Hardiman Research Building). \nPádraic Moran\, Classics\, University of Galway\n‘Two new resources for manuscript studies: network graphs\, linked open data\, open-access publishing\, natural language processing.’ \nThis talk will discuss Digital Humanities aspects of work in progress on two online resources for the study of early manuscript culture: Manuscripts with Irish Associations (MIrA) <http://www.mira.ie> and Gloss Corpus <http://www.glossing.org/glosscorpus>. The former is an online catalogue\, with images\, for manuscripts either originating in Ireland or written by Irish scribes abroad\, or associated with Ireland in other ways. The latter is a collaborative resource for digital editions of glosses\, that is\, short texts written between the lines and in the margins of manuscripts. I will provide a short introduction to both resources\, with some comments on technical infrastructure and digital sustainability. For MIrA\, I will discuss the deployment of network graphs and critical issues surrounding their interpretation. I will also outline current efforts to a create an international network of Linked Open Data for early medieval Latin manuscripts. For Gloss Corpus\, I will explain the concept and practice of open-access publishing as applied here and discuss plans for the application of data analytics using natural language processing. \nYou may register to attend via Zoom here:\nhttps://forms.office.com/e/CvkPkh39sJ \nFull programme:\nhttps://mooreinstitute.ie/event/digital-humanities-research-seminar-series-spring-2024/

SUMMARY:Remembering and Restoring the Past to Ensure the Future: Religious Sites of Minneapolis and St. Paul
DESCRIPTION:You are warmly invited to an online seminar with Marilyn J. Chiat\, Ph.D. and Jeanne Halgren Kilde\, Ph.D. on 5th March 2024 at 4pm GMT: \nRemembering and Restoring the Past to Ensure the Future: Religious Sites of Minneapolis and St. Paul \nThis online seminar is a collaboration between the Centre for the Study of Religion at University of Galway and the Material and Cultural Heritages of Religion in Ireland research network (MCHRI). \nTo register\, please use this link: https://forms.office.com/e/2JWyg9CrAA \nIf you have any difficulty in registering\, please contact alison.forrestal@universityofgalway.ie \nTopic and Speakers: \n(Image: Synagogue erected in 1926 by the Tifereth B’nai Jacob congregation\, Purchased in 1957 by the First Church of God in Christ. Approved by the Minnesota State Historical Preservation Office for nomination to the National Register for Historic Places. Image from the Houses of Worship project website.) \nWhat do the histories of\, and the continued research on\, various local congregations and houses of worship in Minneapolis-St. Paul teach us about how communities are created\, relationships are built\, and how inter- and intra- congregational interactions are lived out? In this presentation\, Dr. Marilyn J. Chiat and Dr. Jeanne Halgren Kilde will introduce their Twin Cities Houses of Worship Project\, which has collected data on over 250 congregations and over 500 sites related to religious and ethnic groups who settled and developed nine neighborhoods along the Mississippi River in St. Paul and Minneapolis between 1849 and 1924. They will also focus on one case study\, a building erected by Orthodox Jews and later purchased by Black Pentecostals\, exploring the distinctive but overlapping histories of the two congregations and discussing the importance of historical research of this kind in bringing historians\, preservationists\, community leaders\, activists\, and others together across lines of religious and ethnic difference in the effort to restore\, remember\, and revitalize historic houses of worship in our region. \nGuest speakers: \nMarilyn J. Chiat\, Ph.D. received her doctorate in Art History from the University of Minnesota.  Her dissertation on ancient synagogue architecture was published by Brown University under the title Handbook of Synagogue Architecture.  Her focus is on the role religious architecture plays in communities\, providing insight into the history of congregants and the larger cultural context in which they exist.  She has published and lectured widely on this topic here and abroad.  Among her other publications is America’s Religious Architecture:  Sacred Places for Every Community\, commissioned by the National Trust for Historic Preservation and published by John Wiley & Sons\, The Sacred Traveler:  Chicago and Illinois\, part of the Sacred Traveler Series published by Paulist Press\, and North American Churches from Chapels to Cathedrals\, published by Publications International. \n \nJeanne Halgren Kilde\, Ph.D. Director Emerita of the Religious Studies Program at the University of Minnesota.  A cultural historian of religion in the United States\, Kilde holds a Ph.D. in American Studies from the University of Minnesota. Her primary research focus is on religious space and architecture. Among her publications are the monographs When Church Became Theatre: The Transformation of Evangelical Architecture and Worship (Oxford University Press\, 2002); and Sacred Power\, Sacred Space: An Introduction to Christian Architecture (Oxford University Press\, 2008); and the edited volume\, the Handbook of Religious Space and Place (Oxford University Press\, 2022). With Marilyn Chiat\, she is co-lead researcher on the Houses of Worship in the Twin Cities Project.  She is also working on a study of the development of “spirituality” and “spiritual” architecture in the 1950s and 1960s.

SUMMARY:Award-winning Japanese film director Kazuhiro SODA coming to University of Galway
DESCRIPTION:Award-winning Japanese film director Kazuhiro SODA coming to University of Galway and  PALAS \nTHURSDAY FEBRUARY 29TH \nRenowned Japanese documentary filmmaker\, Kazuhiro SODA is visiting Galway  for a workshop and a screening of his award-winning documentary ZERO (2020). His visit is presented by the School of English Media and Creative Arts\, University of Galway in association with the East Asia Film Festival Ireland [www.eaffi.ie] \nSoda is a multi-award-winning director\, screenwriter\, cinematographer\, producer\, and author. After spending several years in New York producing documentaries for NHK [Japanese national broadcaster]\, he returned to his native Japan to direct his first ‘Observational Film’ – a term and approach to filmmaking that he would make his own through his ‘ten rules.’ \nCAMPAIGN (2007) went on to win the prestigious Peabody Award for Best Documentary. \nSubsequent films garnered additional awards including MENTAL (Best Documentary\, Busan International Film Festival 2008); PEACE (Best Documentary\, Hong Kong International Film Festival 2010) and ZERO (Ecumenical Prize\, Berlin International Film Festival 2020). His latest film\, THE CATS OF GEOKOGO SHRINE premieres at the Berlinale Film Festival in March 2024. \nZERO – screening on Feb 29th at PALAS cinema – is Soda’s most widely celebrated film to date. \nIt follows the final months in the working life of Dr. Yamamoto\, the humane psychiatrist first encountered in MENTAL. Within a culture where mental disorders are often derided and stigmatised\, Yamamoto has created a space of refuge and support for his patients where they are permitted and empowered to be themselves. The resulting film opens up a space for questioning attitudes to mental illness and standardised treatments and is by turns both touching and humorous. \nNow 80 years of age and carer to his beloved wife Yoshiko\, Yamamoto must retire and say goodbye to his patients. A loving look at care and ageing\, the film exemplifies Soda’s non-judgmental and deeply humane approach to his subjects\, offering themes and insights that resonate far beyond their local context. \n\nOn Thursday\, Feb 29th there will be a discussion with Soda about his work in MAIRTIN O’TNUTHAIL THEATRE [Arts Millennium 1023] 4:00-5:15 pm\n\n\nThis will be followed by a screening of the film ZERO at the PÁLÁS cinema at 6:00 pm and a Q&A between the director and Dr Tony Tracy [Huston School of Film].\n\nStudent tickets are just €5 – but please register with tony.tracy@universityofgalway.ie in advance! \nTickets for ZERO screening are available at hkps://www.palas.ie/film/zero-director-qa-with-kazuhirosoda \nFor more information on Kazuhiro Soda’s films and work\, visit: https://www.kazuhirosoda.com

SUMMARY:Irish Studies Seminar: “Embedded in Zeitgeist\, Embodying Zeitgeist: Traditional Music and Arts Developments in Galway\, 1971-1981”
DESCRIPTION:Irish Studies Seminar Series\, 2023-24 (in person\, and on zoom) \nDr Anna Falkenau\, “Embedded in Zeitgeist\, Embodying Zeitgeist: Traditional Music and Arts Developments in Galway\, 1971-1981” \nFocusing on the urban site of Galway City\, this paper explores the embeddedness of Irish traditional music and arts events in the zeitgeist of the 1970s. Described in a national context as “a decade of cultural\, social and economic transition” (Verena Commins 2014)\, on a local level\, Galway “awakened from a sleepy town a happening arts town” (Kernan Andrews 2013). Throughout my paper\, I explore the pathway of key actor Ollie Jennings\, active in Galway’s changing cultural landscape from the mid 1970s. My analysis shows that Galway’s vibrant scene of Irish traditional and folk music-making in public houses and other public spaces – only in place since the early 1970s – was at the root of inceptive arts developments during this decade. My discussion further reveals that it was a concoction of agency and circumstance that enabled Ollie Jennings’ success as music and arts promoter; his actions were at once embedded in zeitgeist\, but also embodied it. Ultimately\, I put forward a re-interpretation of Galway’s recent socio-cultural history. \nDr Anna Falkenau \nA recipient of a Freyer-Hardiman scholarship from the University of Galway\, Anna Falkenau is currently concluding doctoral research on micro and macro flows in the development of Irish traditional music in Galway City between 1961 and 1981. She previously received her Master of Arts in Music from Wesleyan University\, Connecticut\, USA (2004) and graduated from University College Cork (BMus\, 2002). Publications to date include a core chapter entitled “‘It was in the Air’: Irish Traditional Music in Galway\, 1960-1979\,” contributed to Hardiman & Beyond: The Arts and Culture of Galway Since 1820\, edited by John Cunningham and Ciaran McDonagh. Anna Falkenau is also an active performer of Irish traditional music (violin). She has released two critically acclaimed albums: her solo CD Féileacán na Saoirse – The Butterfly of Freedom (2014) and I Can Hear You Calling with five-string banjo player Lena Ullman (2017)\, both albums receiving four-star reviews in The Irish Times. www.annafalkenau.com \nThis seminar will take place in the Seminar Room\, Centre for Irish Studies\, School of Geography\, Archaeology and Irish Studies\, 4 Distillery Road\, University of Galway\, and on zoom here: https://universityofgalway-ie.zoom.us/j/99430390639?pwd=Z3g0WEU0KzA2K051MlZWVVRFdFgxdz09

SUMMARY:Centre for Creative Technologies Masterclass Series: Co-Designing Socially Engaged Research: The Approach of Immersive Empathy
DESCRIPTION:Co-Designing Socially Engaged Research: The Approach of Immersive Empathy \n\n\n\n\nPart of the Masterclasses @ Centre for Creative Technologies collection. \n\n\n\n\nIntroducing the methods used on the Immersive Empathy project along with some of the ethical questions raised by socially engaged research. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis event will also be streamed via Zoom – if you would prefer to attend online\, register at: https://universityofgalway-ie.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_Pe258ixkQGmJUdxCY4I_DQ \nMuch has been written about the power of virtual reality to put the viewer in someone else’s shoes and increase empathy towards those who experience social marginalization. However the wave of humanitarian VR films that have been produced in recent years has also raised questions about who gets to tell their stories and on whose terms they are invited to speak. Whilst viewers of virtual reality films can find themselves transported to a Syrian refugee camp or a slum in Kenya\, critics have argued that such films act less as challenges to inequalities than as a form of misery tourism. \nThe Immersive Empathy Project is an initiative of researchers within the disciplines of film\, drama\, psychology\, business and digital humanities at the University of Galway that responds to both the potential and the criticisms of immersive reality as a tool for social change. Working with clients of Galway Simon who have experienced homelessness\, it situates the principles of co-creation and consent at the heart of its storytelling process. Over the course of several months\, it involved a series of workshops that empowered the participants to tell their own stories and to translate those personal narratives into an immersive film\, Lost & Found\, exploring the experience of homelessness from the perspective of those who have lived it. \nThis masterclass will introduce participants to the methodologies employed on the Immersive Empathy project along with some of the ethical questions raised by socially engaged research. \nThe Immersive Empathy project has received funding from the Irish Research Council\, Science Foundation Ireland\, and the Illuminate fund\, run by the College of Arts\, Social Sciences and Celtic Studies at University of Galway. \n\nRegistration:\nCo-Designing Socially Engaged Research: The Approach of Immersive Empathy Tickets\, Tue\, Feb 27\, 2024 at 12:00 PM | Eventbrite

SUMMARY:School of Psychology Research Seminar: How to be an Academic in a World on Fire: Talk & Hands-On Workshop
DESCRIPTION:School of Psychology Research Seminar: How to be an Academic in a World on Fire\nTalk & Hands-On Workshop\nDr. Clare Kelly\, Trinity College Dublin \nMonday 26th February 12:30-15:00 \n(lunch included)\nG065 AMBE\, University of Galway \nAddressing the climate crisis requires radical and urgent action at all levels of society. Universities are ideally positioned to lead such action but are largely failing to do so. At the same time\, many academic scientists find their work impeded by corporatization and bureaucracy\, a loss of academic freedom\, overwork\, casualisation\, and poor mental health. In this talk\, I will describe a recent paper that draws on Kate Raworth’s Doughnut Economics framework to rethink academia\, which increasingly transgresses human and planetary limits while failing to provide a socially just foundation for its communities. In response\, we suggest seven new principles for reimagining the norms of academic practice (Urai & Kelly\, 2023). Based on these principles\, we propose a call to action\, and encourage academics to take concrete steps towards a thriving scientific enterprise that both works better for people and responds to the climate crisis. \nDo you want to learn more? Following the talk\, a hands on workshop (see https://anneurai.net/doughnut-academia/) will support participants to take concrete steps toward action. Participants will analyse current academic norms through a doughnut lens to identify and rethink unhelpful practices and to identify actions that will institute new ones. Activities will equip participants with new knowledge\, motivation\, and allegiances that will support them to take action – in their local context and as part of the global community. \nSign up for the workshop (and reminder!) here: https://forms.gle/Speanj9xkeZiyuJ46 \nClare Kelly PhD is an Associate Professor in the School of Psychology and Department of Psychiatry at the School of Medicine\, Trinity College Dublin\, and a Principal Investigator at Trinity College Institute of Neuroscience (https://immalab.wordpress.com/). Clare is a developmental cognitive neuroscientist whose research to date has largely focused on using translational brain imaging techniques to better understand psychiatric conditions such as depression by tracing the origins of these conditions in the developing brain. More recently\, Clare’s focus has broadened to include teaching\, research\, and advocacy on the climate and biodiversity crisis. She was recently awarded a Sustainability Leadership Award and a Teaching Award for her undergraduate teaching on the psychology of the climate crisis. Working with Anne Urai (https://anneurai.net/)\, she argues that many aspects of scientific culture and practice act as a barrier to climate action\, and that we need reimagine academia in a way that works better for people and enables climate action.

SUMMARY:University of Galway History Seminar: Alms-Collecting and Information Gathering: Spanish Franciscan Commissioners and the Global Expansion of Holy Land Devotion
DESCRIPTION:University of Galway History Seminar: Alms-Collecting and Information Gathering: Spanish Franciscan Commissioners and the Global Expansion of Holy Land Devotion \nProfessor Megan Armstrong (McMaster University) \nThe next University of Galway History Research Seminar of the semester will take place at 4.00pm on Wednesday\, 21 February 2024. The speaker will join us online\, but colleagues are welcome to join us in Room G010\, Hardiman Building\, where the talk will be livestreamed\, via Zoom: https://universityofgalway-ie.zoom.us/j/93981848717 \nPlease note the change of date. This talk has been brought forward from 28 February. \nFollowing the seminar\, at 5.15pm\, will be the in-person launch of Bríd McGrath’s The Operations of the Irish House of Commons\, 1613-1648 (Four Courts Press\, 2023). The book will be launched by Professor Nicholas Canny\, MRIA\, FBA. For those of you joining us online\, you can use the same Zoom link as above to access the book launch. \nAbstract \nThis paper explores the commissioners of the holy land\, a unique alms-gathering institution affiliated with the Custody of the Holy Land.  The Custody\, based in Jerusalem\, has overseen Catholic pilgrimage to the Holy Land since the fourteenth century. Since that time it has also been under the governance of members of the Observant Franciscan Order.  Through their circulation of alms and religious mementoes\, commissioners played an active role in promoting Catholic devotion to the Christian holy places between Jerusalem and a global Catholic tradition. My talk explores one dimension that is critical for understanding its role in promoting holy land devotion—and that was its partnership with the Spanish state. The Spanish monarchy was the single most important patron of the Custody by the fifteenth century. From the sixteenth century onwards\, commissioners boarded Spanish ships headed for the farthest reaches of its expanding empire\, carrying religious mementoes and returning with monies and other forms of religious donations in support of the Holy Land pilgrimage.  Correspondence produced by the commissioners reveals a mutually beneficial partnership\, one that pivoted upon the dual functions of these Franciscan officials as information gathers as well as alms-collectors. On the one hand\, Spanish patronage of the commissioners extended the spiritual geography of the Custody in its efforts to keep the Christian holy places at the centre of Catholic devotion. On the other hand\, the Spanish monarchy saw its own political and religious authority enhanced through its material and ideological association with the Custody\, a Franciscan institution that by virtue of its traditional mobile character and location within the boundaries of the Ottoman empire extended Habsburg reach more deeply into the eastern Mediterranean. \nSpeaker Biography \nMegan Armstrong is Professor of History at McMaster University. She is a specialist on religion and politics with a special focus upon Early Modern Catholicism and the Holy Land. Her most recent publication is The Holy Land and the Early Modern Reinvention of Catholicism (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press\, 2021). She is presently working on three research projects: Global Pilgrimage to the Holy Land\, 1450-1700: Sacred Space and Cultural Interactions (Under contract with Routledge)\, Easter Processions and Religious Coexistence in Early Modern Jerusalem\, 1500—1700\, and Collecting for the Holy Land: The Commissioners of the Holy Land in the global expansion of the Early Modern Catholic Church.

SUMMARY:Masterclass: Critical Media Art and the ‘Cloud’
DESCRIPTION:Masterclass: Critical Media Art and the ‘Cloud’ \nA masterclass run by the Centre for Creative Technologies\, with Dr Paul O’Neill of the ADAPT Centre for AI-Driven Technologies in UCD \nJoin us for the next in the masterclass series run by the Centre for Creative Technologies. This talk will provide an overview of ‘critical’ media artists who engage with issues associated with contemporary algorithmic culture including surveillance\, data sovereignty and the environmental impacts of information communication technologies within their practices. These artists are influenced by subfields of media theory including tactical media\, critical making and media archaeology. \nFollowing this\, Paul will document a series of his ongoing practice-based work which focuses on the relationship between the physical and corporate infrastructures of the internet in Ireland and beyond\, including Dublin Infrastructure Tour (2018 – 2023)\, Greetings from… (2022) and we are all going to make it (in progress). This work draws on the aforementioned subfields of media theory and spans a wide range of creative practices and techniques including countermapping\, open source intelligence\, remix and culture jamming. \nParticipants are encouraged to bring a connected device (laptop\, smartphone\, tablet) as the talk will conclude with a short exercise focusing on mapping networked infrastructure – no technical expertise required. \nSpeaker Bio \nDr Paul O’ Neill is a postdoctoral researcher at the ADAPT Centre for AI-Driven Technologies in University College Dublin. His practice and research is concerned with the implications of our collective dependency on networked technologies and infrastructures. He has exhibited and presented his work at numerous cultural institutions and events including Science Gallery (Ireland)\, Ars Electronica (Austria)\, Inspace (Scotland) and NeMe (Cyprus)\, and his research has featured in publications from the Institute of Network Cultures and ANNEX – Ireland’s representative at the 2021 Venice Architecture Biennale.Paul is also the research lead for the Beta Festival of Art & Technology and co-curator of the Dublin Art & Technology Association (DATA). \nRegistration\nPlease register via Eventbrite at: https://www.eventbrite.ie/e/masterclass-critical-media-art-and-the-cloud-tickets-830100241167?aff=oddtdtcreator

SUMMARY:University of Galway History Research Seminar: How Indigenous Americans Discovered Europe
DESCRIPTION:University of Galway History Research Seminar \nDr Caroline Dodds Pennock  \n(University of Sheffield) \nAbstract \nDespite growing scholarly work to the contrary\, the popular image of early modern Europe remains an extraordinarily white\, ruffed and cod-pieced Tudor fantasy\, where Indigenous\, African and Asian people existed only as curiosities from distant lands. But\, in reality\, tens of thousands of Indigenous people – Maya\, Totonac\, Tupí\, Aztec-Mexica\, Inuit\, Taíno and others – travelled to Europe from the moment of first encounter\, many unwillingly\, but some by choice. \nFrom the Brazilian ‘king’ who met Henry VIII to the Aztecs who mocked up human sacrifice at the court of Charles V; from the Inuk baby who was put on show in a London pub to the mestizo children of Spaniards who returned ‘home’ with their fathers; from the Inuit who harpooned ducks on the Avon river to the many servants and enslaved people employed by Europeans of every rank: here are people who were rendered exotic\, demeaned\, and marginalised\, but whose worldviews and cultures had a profound impact on European civilisation. \nIn this talk\, Caroline Dodds Pennock will introduce her new book\, On Savage Shores: How Indigenous Americans Discovered Europe\, reflecting on some of the earliest Indigenous travellers\, and explaining why it is so important to challenge popular perceptions of the early modern period and write an Indigenous-centred history of the Atlantic world. \nSpeaker Biography \nDr Caroline Dodds Pennock is Senior Lecturer in International History at the University of Sheffield. Her first trade book On Savage Shores: How Indigenous Americans Discovered Europe was published in January 2023 and has been warmly received\, being selected as one of the best history books of the year by Smithsonian Magazine\, The Economist\, BBC History Magazine and others. Caroline is probably best known as the only British Aztec historian\, and her first book\, Bonds of Blood: Gender\, Lifecycle and Sacrifice in Aztec Culture (2008\, PB: 2011) won the Royal Historical Society’s Gladstone Prize for 2008. As well as pestering people on twitter @carolinepennock\, Caroline also works as a popular history writer\, consultant\, and ‘talking head’ expert for TV and radio\, having appeared on programmes for broadcasters including the BBC\, Channel 4\, Sky and Netflix. \nRegistration\nThis is an online only event\, streamed via Zoom: https://universityofgalway-ie.zoom.us/j/95635528755. \nTo attend via Zoom\, please register at: https://forms.office.com/e/Ji5c8Q3UQJ \nThis talk is part of the University of Galway History Seminar series. \nAll are welcome!

SUMMARY:Translation Café: 'Four-Eyes Readers and characters: Translation choices and the creation of characters in three versions of Manolito Gafotas
DESCRIPTION:Translation Café: ‘Four-Eyes Readers and characters: Translation choices and the creation of characters in three versions of Manolito Gafotas  \nby Dr Maria Pilar Alderete Diez  \n(Spanish\, University of Galway and CITN – Children in Translation Network) \nIn this translation café\, we will have a look at three English versions of a Spanish book series marketed for children. We will discuss in small groups what version we prefer and why\, in order to get some insights on how translator choices influence our reading of character\, voice and the appeal of the story itself. Prepare yourself to let your inner child read and react to what’s on the page and verbalize what you would like to have on the page. \nTranslation Café is a monthly event run by the Emily Andeson Centre for Translation Research and Practice. It functions as a reading group for colleagues interested in the many facets of the art of translation. The format of the group is designed to allow participants share their interests/research/linguistic investigations with other colleagues in an informal manner. \nColleagues interested in leading future Translation Café meetings this year are invited to email irina.ruppo@universityofgalway.ie.

SUMMARY:Digital Humanities Research Group seminar: "To have the 'million' readers yet": applying OCR & NER to bilingual Irish-English texts in An Gaodhal (1881–1898)
DESCRIPTION:Digital Humanities Research Group seminar \nDeirdre Ní Chonghaile\, Glucksman Ireland House\, New York University\nOksana Dereza\, Data Science Institute\, University of Galway \n“To have the ‘million’ readers yet”: applying OCR & NER to bilingual Irish-English texts in An Gaodhal (1881–1898) \n  \nAbstract:\nComputerized text extraction for the Irish language (Gaeilge) faces a number of challenges\, the most significant of which is the machine-readability of cló Gaelach\, the typeface most commonly used in hand-written and printed Irish-language material up until the 1960s. To date\, only a handful of OCR training models attuned to cló Gaelach\, and to pre-standardized spelling\, have emerged and none were trained on bilingual texts (Irish-English). Using the text-recognition software Transkribus\, a team at New York University and University of Galway have developed two new OCR models: a Gaeilge-only model and a bilingual Gaeilge-English model. The core dataset for this OCR training exercise is the Brooklyn-based bilingual monthly newspaper An Gaodhal (1881-1898)\, the first serial dedicated to providing content to an Irish-language readership\, which was established\, edited\, and printed by Galwayman Micheál Ó Lócháin (1836-1899). The contents of the newspaper reflect the cultural interests of Irish speakers in New York\, Ireland\, and the wider diaspora; Irish American life; New York history; and the development of the Irish language during the Celtic Revival period. Using the texts extracted from An Gaodhal\, which are being corrected at word level\, the team is developing NER (named entity recognition) tools to aid future NLP work in the Irish language. This work-in-progress presentation will share learnings from this on-going project. \nRegistration \nTo to attend via Zoom\, please register here: https://forms.office.com/e/CvkPkh39sJ
